Cleaners

All metals need to be cleaned prior to electroplating, blackening, or finishing. Metalworking fluids and carbonaceous smut need to be removed in a soak, spray, electroclean, or ultrasonic cleaning. A properly cleaned part will have excellent adhesion and be brighter, blacker, and smut-free. Learn More

EPi's Latest New Distributor in China Completes Training at EPi

Posted by Eric Olander on December 19, 2008

Today Ms. Du from China completed her training at EPi.

EPi looks forward to having my Ms. Du represent EPi in China. Ms. Du trained on EPi's latest developments in blackening magnesium and electroplating magnesium. Ms. Du's customers are looking for a blackening process for magnesium. EPi hopes to launch it some time first quarter in 2009.

Additional training was completed on EPi's B/Ox product line including a discussion on the many variables in antiquing processes: substrates, antiquing process, relieving process, and the top-coating process. Another interesting application was black oxidzing polished stainless steel cell phone cover with Ultra blak 407 as a replacement for black nickel. We look forward to growing our business in China with Ms. Du.
